Today was just one of those days where I was teary eyed the entire day. I tried to hide it, but I couldnt stop. I never do this in public and can usually control myself--but not today. did anyone ask if I was okay? no, they saw me and instead of even caring to ask if i was fine, they avoided me. That just made me feel even worse. Its not like I dump my problems onto people--I have never done this. Am I that unlikeable that people around me, people i like and love, dont want to even see if i need a hug or a shoulder to cry on. And i know, i could have ask someone for that but I cant bring myself to impose on others. I dont want to drag others down with me. ugg.

((((((Angel))))) Sometimes people are paralysed by their won fear of being helpless. They proably couldn't make up their minds what to do. Big hugs then to make up for all the dumb stares. You won't drag us down.

Sometimes people are so wrapped up in themselves that they don't notice when someone else is hurting and others are just at a loss to know what to do when someone is crying.

I'm sorry you are hurting, sending hugs ((((((((((( angel )))))))))))

Are you feeling any better this morning?

It's ok to ask for what we need. Asking for a hug isn't going to drag anybody down, unless they have a major problem with intimacy. Find someone you trust and ask for what you need. It's OK. You would do it for them, right?

This has happened to me so many times. I know exactly how you feel. The people that surround you probably just don't how how to react. Like Berries said, just try to find someone you trust to help you out.

Sending lots of hugs!
